If you're a casual fan and don't already own their 1994 box set or 1998's well chosen ANTHOLOGY, you certainly can't go wrong with this 34-track collection. The collection begins with "Tuesday Afternoon" from the classic lineup's 1968 debut DAYS OF FUTURE PAST and continues through "December Snow" from their 2003 holiday album DECEMBER. [As the previous reviewers have noted, "Go Now" is not included, but that 1965 hit came from a lineup that did not include the Moodies' principal songwriters, Justin Hayward and John Lodge.] What you do get is all of their top 40 hits, key album tracks, and a handful of side projects like the Blue Jays' "Remember Me My Friend" and "Blue Guitar," and Justin Hayward's "Forever Autumn" from Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of "War of the Worlds." All told this is a very satisfying collection if you're looking for a solid introduction to the Moody Blues.
